1 Revision history for local::lib
4 - Fix tests with stacking l::ls.
8 - Add local::lib stacking support.
9 - Add activation/deactivation support.
13 - Bootstrap Module::Build just like ExtUtils::MakeMaker
17 - Remove redundant prereqs now that Module::Build 0.36 is required
18 - Makefile.PL avoids CPAN client configuration when not required
19 - print_environment_vars_for() refactored with separate function
20 environment_vars_string_for()
21 - PERL_LOCAL_LIB_ROOT environment is added to disambiguate when
22 PERL_MM_OPT, etc. was set by local::lib or other means
25 - Chase the Module::Build version which supports PERL_MB_OPT. Thanks to
26 miyagawa for pointing this out.
30 - Split up method guess_shelltype from parts of print_environment_vars_for
31 - Updated documentation about change of use with .modulebuildrc
35 - Finally move to PERL_MB_OPT rather than using .modulebuildrc.
39 - Fixing stuff so that search.cpan.org displays right
40 - Documented one method in all languages
44 - Added portuguese translation
45 - Several minor fixes in the documentation
46 - Changed methods look in documentation
50 - Added support informations (also for german)
51 - Fixed newline in german translation from DOS2UNIX
59 - Added german translation right
63 - Hotfix for a search.cpan.org "Bug"
67 - Added german translation
68 - Enhanced some parts of english documentation
69 - doc patch for win32 from run4flat
70 - reverse the perl/arch paths in PERL5LIB
74 - Create lib::core::only that provides the "set @INC to core dirs
75 only" functionality that was the only part of --self-contained that
77 - Delete broken --self-contained flag from core
85 - More robust handling of running new toolchains on older perls. This
86 should sort out issues users have with bootstrapping on e.g. Solaris
87 and other traditional Unices. In addition, try to find a GNU tar
88 capable of dealing with @LongLink so bootstrapping doesn't fail.
90 - Warnings for missing PATH/PERL5LIB (as when not running interactively)
91 silenced by a patch from Marco Emilio Poleggi.
93 - Start of better docs for C<--self-contained> thanks to
98 - Fix warning if your $ENV{PERL5LIB} is undef
100 - Doc improvement from kgish/#perl-help@irc.perl.org
102 - t0m and chrisa on #local-lib@irc.perl.org pointed out a PERL5LIB ordering issue
103 with C<--self-contained>.
107 - Clarify re-reading the shell config file after writing to it.
109 - Clarify copyright and licensing for packaging by vendors.
113 - Ensure that $ENV{PERL5LIB} and @INC are always de-duped, stopping
114 them from growing if local::lib is invoked multiple times for the
117 - Doc improvements by kurisuto@irc.perl.org/#catalyst.
119 - Cleaned up indentation of code lines in the POD. Everything should be
123 - Fix parsing of --self-contained and local lib directory. It's now
124 possible to specify flags and the directory in any order. Also made
125 adding future flags easier in the future. Thanks to
126 frew@irc.perl.org/#catalyst for pointing out that --self-contained
127 wouldn't work without a directory.
130 - Add the --no-manpages option to bootstraping to tell EUMM / MB to not
131 generate manpages from POD. Thanks to RKITOVER for providing the
132 necessary values for CPAN.pm's configuration.
136 - Add dependency on Extutils::Install 1.43 and install in --bootstrap
137 otherwise we fail to build with latest MakeMaker on OpenSolaris (t0m)
139 - Fix Win32 / Cygwin detection (emazep).
142 - Stop Makefile.PL exploding if your CPAN is too old to have
143 CPAN::HandleConfig. Needed when installing local::lib via CPAN
144 using an old CPAN version (t0m)
145 - Fix warning from Makefile.PL about ExtUtils::MakeMaker::prompt (t0m)
146 - Set PERL5LIB back to calculated @INC with --self-contained, to stop
147 invoking other perl scripts from losing the local::lib if they
148 mangle @INC from $ENV{PERL5LIB}, and fix install of 'difficult'
149 modules with such as Test::Deep (t0m)
152 - Fixed up INC untaint procedure to skip/ignore CODE, ARRAY,
153 blessed entries. (grink)
154 - Include test in xt/ for the above
156 - Put PERL5LIB first, so it'll be favored over privlibexp and
157 archlibexp when self contained.
158 - Automatically untaint @INC (t0m)
159 - Prevent @INC from growing when you have multiple scripts using
160 --self-contained called from inside one another. (grink by way of t0m)
161 - eg/scripted_install.pl now no longer requires TARGET, but still
162 respects it. (confound)
165 - Clean up CPAN.pm's environment variable the same way we do for
166 CPANPLUS. Add an example program showing local::lib employed
167 programmatically (confound).
169 - Add the beginnings of a troubleshooting section (pattern).
172 - Don't allow dangerous settings for CPAN.pm that affect where CPAN
173 installs stuff, as this conflicts with what we're trying to do.
175 - Make sure that our Makefile is written to the correct directory when
176 bootstrapping (confound).
179 - Additional documentation and examples concerning having multiple
180 local::lib enviornments (amiri)
182 - Some install tests courtesy of Hans Dieter Pearcey <hdp@cpan.org>.
186 - Expose the internals per RT #36846.
187 - Fix the MANIFEST up a bit.
190 - Add a doc patch from Torsten Raudssus <torsten@raudssus.de> that
191 clarifies how to specify a directory other than ~/perl5.
194 - Properly bail if given fancy dashes obtained by copy-pasting from a
195 UTF8-happy POD formatter. This will bail in both the Makefile.PL and
196 in local::lib::import().
199 - Add the --self-contained flag from Mark Stosberg, which also contains
200 a doc patch warning about the dangers of UNINST=1. Thanks, Mark!
203 - make CPAN config reinit non-prompting but still robust
204 - make bootstrap auto-init CPAN config and set USE_DEFAULT for deps
207 - refactored shell command generation
208 - implemented C shell command generation based on this (checks $SHELL}
210 - modified Makefile.PL to install an up-to-date CPAN.pm if needed
